Jerry Seinfeld Goes After 'Excessive Left' Over Comedy Forward of seventieth Birthday

Jerry Seinfeld reflected on the state of comedy ahead of his 70th birthday — and he thinks modern-day showbiz has lost its sense of humor … all ’cause of politically correct culture.

The legendary comedian was talking on the New Yorker’s Radio Hour this past week, and he talked about where comedy in general stands today … in his opinion, it’s not great — and it all has to do with the “extreme left,” which he believes has ruined TV shows and sitcoms.

JS says people need comedy, and yet … they’re not getting their daily dose in the 21st century — especially in 2024 — when they turn on their televisions to wind down at night.

Goes without saying … Jerry had one of the biggest comedy shows in history in “Seinfeld,” so his take certainly carries weight. Some, however, are a little shocked to hear Jerry say this.

While he might be dismayed with where comedy is going, he’s still got love for NYC.

Despite all the changes going on in the world, Jerry says the city remains the same as he remembers it — full of cranky people who are real, and who like to complain and suffer. As the world changes into something he doesn’t seem to recognize, New York stays the same.
